The ample soil moisture minimized frost risks, and the mild spring during bud break indicated a promising vintage. Although the season was dry, it remained mild with warm days and cool nights. The low disease pressure resulted in fruit that was rich in flavor, naturally high in acid, and had modest sugar levels. Wines from 2021 are enjoyable young but also have great aging potential, making this one of the standout vintages of the past decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrenache blocks were hand-picked at various times to build layers of complexity from the vineyard. Early-harvested grapes were de-stemmed and fermented at lower temperatures to maintain floral aromas. Later-harvested fruit was de-stemmed and crushed with its own stalks in concrete fermenters.
